whoda thunkit

A belly full of Pho and Soju apparently makes David a far happier camper.

And, the Pho restaurant nearby (Pho Bay) even has English on its menu. WIN!

Alcohol prices in Ontario are so distorted...

At Pho Bay here in Korea:

Pho - medium bowl: 11,000 won
Fried spring rolls (4, small): 3500 won
Soju: 3000 won.

That is not a glass of Soju. That's a bottle of Soju. Enough Soju that David is a very definitely tipsy David. I think about 375ml size. (Might be 500ml, I couldn't find enough English on the bottle to tell. But seemed about 375 ml size.)

Oh yeah, 1000 won ~= $1 CDN. (Close enough. At Vancouver airport 200,000 won cost me $211.)

In Ottawa:
Pho - medium bowl: $8
Spring Rolls: $5.
Soju: $11

(Approximate prices. Soju might be more at a restaurant, actually.)

Also, all the Korean prices are tax-inclusive.
